Answer Question Comments

43 Yes Accurate records of employee time are critical not only for financial accountability, but also effective management of your workforce. Is your municipality ensuring that 1) employees complete and file standardized forms, either electronically or by paper, to verify all employee time worked (e.g. time cards, electronic time keeping); 2) your personnel/human resources office maintains records accounting for all employee leave time earned and used; and 3) supervisors are reviewing and approving/denying employee time and attendance documentation before those records are submitted to management and, in the case of department heads, is such documentation reviewed and verified independently?

44 No Has your municipality instituted a policy to not compensate employees for sick leave accumulated after a certain date?
